The USFL (United States Football League) was a professional American football league that played three seasons from 1983 to 1985. It was established as an alternative to the NFL, with a spring-summer schedule, and attempted to compete by signing established NFL players and drafting college stars. The league had 18 teams across the United States, but struggled with financial and organizational problems, leading to its eventual collapse. Despite its brief existence, the USFL was notable for being the first professional football league to have teams in cities without NFL franchises and for launching the careers of several future NFL players.
